ICED EARTH, whose new album "The Crucible Of Man - Something Wicked
Part II" is released September 5 (Germany, Switzerland, Austria), September
8 (UK & Rest of Europe) and September 9 (USA & Rest of world) have
announced that their LOS ANGELES show, originally booked at THE
AVALON for October 24, 2008 has been moved to THE WILTERN
THEATRE due to overwhelming demand. Tickets for the new location
will go on sale September 6, 2008. All tickets purchased through September
4 for the show at the Avalon will be honored at The Wiltern Theater. The
promoter for this show has not changed.

Due to additional backstage facilities, there will also be a limited number
of additional "CHILD

"It's awesome that the Minions are gathering in force to see the band
this Fall on the North American Crucible, and I can't wait to see you all on
tour!" says Jon Schaffer.
